Nevermind..... Digital Trucker helped me out on IRC. You need to use skinstudio to specify the wallpaper you want to use.

I know that I am not a very frequent contributer to the site (although I have been around since the beginning), but wanted to share that my father passed away this morning at 1:20am from pnuemonia. He was 76 years old, sufferred from Alzheimer's, and was at the hospital to recieve radiation treatment for cancer on his nose.

Awesome feature! I downloaded a few nice creations from another site, followed the directions, and voila! Both came out nicely transformed into windowblinds. Thanks.

I bought and installed one of the first "car phones" when they came out - you know, before they made them so small and truly portable. Had the box phone, bag phone, and now a tiny Motorola V60i (and it's outdated already). I use it for business and pleasure and never go over the minutes in my plan (costs me 49.99/month). I don't remember what it was like to have to find a pay phone that actually worked.

I can't even update to 4.2. I tried updating from Stardock Central - it downloads, asks me to restart my computer, then pops up in SD Central again asking if I want to update. Perhaps with the bugginess it is a good thing.

I installed the drive on it's side (attached to the inside of the case) and haven't had any problems with it. It's a "freebie", pulled out of an old compaq, just using it to store "junk".

Adding a Second Hard Drive in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Nothing to do with skinning.............. Can I put a second hard drive in my PC despite the lack of bays? There is room inside but not an available bay. Also, does it have to be mounted a certain way - can I put it upside down or on it's side? Thanks for the help.

I've owned several Dell's in the past few years and have no complaints. Kona - why did you contradict yourself? ToeJo - I think you'll be pleased with the Dell.

It is, in my opinion, "that good". It may not be worth the money for you. I use outlook and word both at home and place of employment and find that they work well for me. I also can use both on my PDA without much effort.

Scooby, This is certainly not the place to post about your "extensive list of hacked programs" loaded on your laptop. I would suggest editing your post (at a minimum).

Reply to Outlook 2003 in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

For those that are wary of editing the registry, here is a link to a website for a product called "DetachOL". The program is free but in development. http://www.mcdev.com It's quick and painless. In my opinion, it is better than many of the com add-in's available that do the same thing. [Message Edited]
